"How did you know?"
"Before Zhuzi died, he wrote a will. His uncle took the will and found my hometown based on the location Zhuzi provided in the will, and contacted Yuxiu."
These were Liang Sanxi's words. After he finished speaking, Zhao Mengsheng turned to ask Fang Zhenhua.
"Zhenhua, how do you plan to handle this matter? We must get justice for Zhuzi's matter."
Fang Zhenhua slowly stood up, took a few steps, then turned around and looked at the others.
"The battle in southern Xinjiang was won by our generation of revolutionary soldiers. These are medals of honor for each of us, and we will never allow anyone to insult them."
"To humiliate a wounded soldier is to humiliate us who are still alive. If we don't seek justice for Zhu Zi, how can we face the martyrs who sacrificed their lives?"
“Secretary Gong will be coming today. This happened in Handong, and we demand an explanation.”
With that, Fang Zhenhua strode out of the movie theater.
Zhao Mengsheng, Gao Degong, Liang Sanxi, Yue Jun, and others followed closely behind.
Just as Fang Zhenhua himself said, the Southern Xinjiang Campaign was the most glorious thing for his generation of soldiers.
To humiliate a hero like Zhu Zi is to humiliate people like him and their past deeds.
These young officers in the military united as one.
Upon arriving at the door of the reserved private room, Fang Zhenhua immediately spotted Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei also saw his uncle and the group of uncles and elders behind him.
However, when Qi Tongwei looked at his uncle, he suddenly realized that his uncle seemed a little difficult to deal with today!
"Secretary Gong has arrived!"
Qi Tongwei was startled awake by Fang Zhenhua and quickly said something.
"Uncle, Secretary Gong, Governor Zheng, Secretary Liu, and Secretary Pei have all arrived."
"You're here, open the door."
Qi Tongwei pushed open the door to the private room, and there were five people sitting inside, one of whom was Song Hongzhong, Fang Zhenhua's old classmate.
Secretary Gong brought him along as well.
Pei Yihong leaned back on the sofa and chuckled.
"Hey! What's that wind blowing you all so close together today?"
After Pei Yihong finished laughing, he keenly noticed that the expressions on the faces of these young military officers were rather serious!
How is this going?
"Secretary Gong, let Mengsheng tell you a story!"
After Fang Zhenhua finished speaking, he sat down on the sofa, and the military personnel also sat down.
Secretary Gong was somewhat bewildered. So, today's matter was related to him?
"Mengsheng, you speak."
After Zhao Mengsheng recounted the story again, Zheng Bingyi, Pei Yihong, and Liu Anguo all gasped in shock.
No wonder these guys exuded such a murderous aura.
Huaizhou has really bitten off more than they can chew this time.
Those people, despite their meticulous planning, did not anticipate this.
Behind the pillar stood three major generals and several division-level officers.
Will Fang Zhenhua give up?
Chapter 184: Going with the flow
Secretary Gong reached out, picked up the special-supply cigarettes on the coffee table, lit one, and gave a wry smile.
"Zhenhua, what kind of explanation do you want from me?"
"Secretary Gong, I want to know the whole story. Was the wounded soldier who fought in the Southern Xinjiang Campaign wrongfully killed? I need an answer."
As he spoke, Fang Zhenhua pointed at Zhao Mengsheng and the others.
“Secretary Gong, not only do I need an explanation, but Meng Sheng and Lao Gao also need an explanation. We cannot accept this insult to our generation of revolutionary soldiers.”
Zhao Mengsheng and Gao Degong both expressed their opinions.
Even Song Hongzhong added his own comment.
"Secretary, this really needs to be thoroughly investigated, otherwise it will dishearten us military personnel!"
"Zhenhua, you really know how to pick people! Aren't you my lucky star?"
Secretary Gong's face broke into a bright smile, which left Fang Zhenhua somewhat bewildered, while Song Hongzhong seemed to have guessed something.
he said with a smile.
"Old Fang, Secretary Gong is right, you are truly a lucky star."
"what happened?"
"Hongzhong, you speak!"
Secretary Gong instructed Song Hongzhong to report on the situation. Song Hongzhong nodded slightly and then spoke.
"Xue Huan, the mayor of Huaizhou City, is Jin Zhicheng's man. Jin Zhicheng did not support the foreign investment negotiation meeting at the previous Standing Committee meeting, and has also made a lot of underhanded moves since then."
"I know this."
"So," Secretary Gong continued, picking up the conversation.
“If you want to investigate this matter, you can. Investigate it thoroughly and get to the bottom of it. If Xue Huan has any problems, take this opportunity to bring him down.”
"Secretary Gong, do you want to replace him with one of your own people?"
Zheng Bingyi, who was standing to the side, immediately understood Secretary Gong's thoughts and pointed out the key point.
“That’s right, I do want to send one of our own people up, but to be honest, I lack a certain foundation in Handong Province, and even if I wanted to find someone from my own side, I might not be able to.”
"If all else fails, last time we pushed Ning Yuanming's people up, this time we might have to push Wen Qihang's people up."
Secretary Gong's time in Handong was too short, and that's the biggest problem right now.
However, there are people inside who can solve this problem.
Liu Anguo coughed once, then slowly spoke.
“Secretary Gong, I do have someone suitable.”
"Oh? Who is it!"
"Zhou Shanben is currently the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and Executive Vice Mayor of Yantai City."
Upon hearing Zhou Shanben's name, Fang Zhenhua smiled.
Shanben is a good comrade!
If a capable and truly dedicated comrade is not promoted, are we to let those who are merely occupying positions without doing any work be promoted instead?
Secretary Gong's mind was racing as he recalled information about Zhou Shanben. After a while, he finally spoke.
"Anguo, isn't he your former secretary?"
"Yes! After leaving the municipal party committee, he went to work in Wenjiang County, where he served as the county magistrate and the county party secretary."
Upon hearing this, Secretary Gong's eyes lit up. The positions of county head and county party secretary were very important in the promotion process.
Having held these two positions demonstrates your solid grassroots experience, which is a testament to your strong qualifications.
"In terms of economic development, Yantai is indeed stronger than Huaizhou. This shows that Comrade Shanben has made a lot of efforts in this regard. Hongzhong, what do you think?"
“I do know Comrade Shanben. He became a member of the Standing Committee of the Yantai Municipal Party Committee at the beginning of last year. He is not old and is in the prime of his life.”
“Yes! We can discuss this when we get back, but first we need to ascertain the situation in Huaizhou. If Xue Huan has any problems during this process, our Handong Provincial Committee will definitely not let him off the hook.”
Secretary Gong made a statement on behalf of the Handong Provincial Party Committee, which relieved Fang Zhenhua and the other soldiers.
"Secretary Gong, thank you."
"Zhenhua, there's no need for thanks. You'll have to have a few more drinks with me later."
"Alright, let's drink until we drop tonight."
Indeed, just as Secretary Gong said, there's no need for thanks between them anymore; they're deeply bound together and inseparable.
Old Fang helped Secretary Gong before, and now Secretary Gong is going along with it, but in reality, he can also promote his own people. So how can you tell the difference?
Some things shouldn't be judged too clearly; doing so can actually be detrimental.
After Secretary Gong finished speaking, Pei Yihong asked slowly.
"However, the key issue is who to send to Huaizhou. We should send someone capable who is also unlikely to arouse suspicion."
“If we send Secretary Gong to Huaizhou, it will undoubtedly alert the enemy, so we still need to send someone with influence who can keep a low profile.”
Everyone kept their heads down, wondering who would be the most suitable person to send.
However, soon everyone's eyes were fixed on the doorway.
There was only one person standing at the door: Qi Tongwei.
Seeing so many eyes on him, Qi Tongwei couldn't help but point to himself with his index finger.
"Are you willing to go to Huaizhou to investigate this case, both openly and covertly, to help your uncle find out the details?"
Qi Tongwei was about to speak when he was immediately interrupted by Secretary Gong.
“Yes! Tongwei is the most suitable person to handle this matter. I know that kid better than anyone. He did something similar back in Lincheng and brought down Qiao Ning in one fell swoop.”
Qi Tongwei couldn't help but groan inwardly, "Secretary! I'm your secretary, not a policeman! You can't keep sending me around investigating this and that all day long!"
Zhao Mengsheng laughed from the side.
"It seems Tongwei has the potential to be a policeman!"
Pei Yihong couldn't help but laugh.
"In my opinion, he's not suited to be a policeman. He's better suited to the Discipline Inspection Commission. Secretary Gong, you haven't really put his talents to good use this time! Tongwei is such a good candidate for the Discipline Inspection Commission, why did you only make him a secretary?"
"Haha, that was definitely my fault. When I get back, I'll let that brat out and send him to the disciplinary committee."
No, Secretary.
I've been so loyal and hardworking, please don't send me to the Discipline Inspection Commission!
I still want to follow in your footsteps, Secretary, and slowly work my way up in the department!
Laughter erupted in the private room. Only then did Qi Tongwei belatedly realize that these Zhongdeng people were making fun of him!
Fortunately, it was his uncle who loved him, Fang Zhenhua asked.
"Tongwei! Are you willing to take this task?"
"Since you're willing to take it, there's one unpleasant thing I have to say upfront."
"What?"
"Only success is allowed, failure is not allowed."
Chapter 185 Qi Tongwei's Wedding
Is it too harsh to only allow success and not failure?
Even Secretary Gong, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but speak up for Qi Tongwei.
"Zhenhua, isn't this a bit too harsh? If you really want Tongwei to only succeed and not fail, at least give him some help!"
"If we send him to Huaizhou alone, what can he find out? Who can guarantee that?"
It's the Party Secretary who cares about me; is my uncle treating me like a special forces soldier?
"Tongwei, do you need help?"
Faced with his uncle's question, Qi Tongwei immediately smiled.
"Uncle, if you could get someone to help me, that would be wonderful."
